[jockerdajigga]

So....; lets keep crawl once more

[francheska404]

I don't believe that there are many artist who can make a genius song like this.To day the music is really fucked up,im just 12 and i realise that this gangster hip hop thing is destroying music in every kind of way...

[petfireball]

@francheska404 no it isnt man....pop is more popular than anything...its even being mixed with rock,country,and hip hop

[youtubin4now]

nice smooth beat and the black clad leather demon just crawls to it. Crawl on jim

[youtubin4now]

[MrSmokeyMoe]

[Thetrippyfrog1]

@MrSmokeyMoe THANK YOU man ppl just dnt understand...

[JadeTheBlade69]

I love being high, drinking a brew... listening to the doors.. but i hate baseball cards!

[Sassafras1991]

Straight edge/Morrison worship. Get pissed.

[classical666]

the guitar here it is so interesting! I like it very much...and Jim is an idol... and he could be an idol choosing any other activity too, because he is!

[sarasue2u]

Why do I always see comments about being "high" or ''drunk'' on the Doors music? lol

[thedearpsychonaut]

@sarasue2u lol derp.

[TheJoshJman]

@sarasue2u watch THE DOORS movie, you'll understand. -- or i can tell you now -- simply put, Jim Morrison and the rest would make and write music WHILE ON "DRUGS" (marijuana, mushrooms, acid, Lsd, etc.), so now your question is answered. this attracts people on the same vibe, usually when inspired, or, like this case, someone is high.

[ajscitco90]

@TheJoshJman Dude you cant go by the doors movie at all man i like watching it for entertainment every now and than but thats hollywoods perception of how things went down they got the drunk and beligerent jim but they totally missed the great poetic jim and they made it seem it was jim on his own the band supported jim in many of his crazy decisions and this isnt a doors song its a muddy waters song that they covered jim was a huge fan of waters

[silmoonful]

[dubstepskunka]

john lee hooker :)

[mosddoomsday1]

@dubstepskunka Who?



[MsDoors33]

yea a gateway drug, not so jerko..............

jim Morrison was an itelligent sensitve human being with

the soul of a clown~ Thats why his face and car is tattooed

on my whole arm, and I don't do drugs h ah ah ah ah

[mosddoomsday1]

@MsDoors33 Mr.Morrison was a genius that was perfect for his time but sadly to damn evolved for this current generation to understand (me excluded Im 18 and have been listening to the doors since i was 6). A visionary and the best poet I have ever had the honor of blessing my eyes by reading his work. His body may lie in Paris, France but ill be damned if his soul doesn't love, live, and linger with this world.

[MrSocal1975]

@mosddoomsday1 YA RIGHT SINCE U WERE SIX GET A NEW LINE EVERYONE USES THE SAME ONE SINCE I WAS SIX OHHHHHH

[mosddoomsday1]

@MrSocal1975 1. Caps lock isnt cruise control for cool. 2. That's when I was first remember listening to them in my biological dads car during visitation. It was "Break on Through". 3. If you really are 36 you need to grow up and also learn how to use grammar and correct spelling. Sorry if your school didn't start teaching you this when you were 6!

[thatdutchguy420]

@mosddoomsday1 dont listen to that asshole when i was six my dad took me to a bar and they had a juke box and my favorite thing to play was the doors and pink floyd and other bands but those were and are my two favorite bands

[clydeholbrook]

@thatdutchguy420 yeah! dutch guys love the doors ! wooooo dutch pride

[MrSocal1975]

@mosddoomsday1 I have a better comment for you and I will even take the CAPS lock off just for you !!!!!!! Ready here it goes Fuck You Trick !!!!!!!!! Hope my spelling and grammer were correct.

[mosddoomsday1]

@MrSocal1975 Good job, you have improved your grammar and spelling! Now time to improve your insults. Go back to listening to that shitty rap you call music. Get out.

[MsDoors33]

my song for my bouquet toss at my wedding hell yeah!

[brunette5588]

@MsDoors33 omg awesome :):):)

[jim1992jacobs]

the doors are a gateway drug :) mostly to booze or weed

[pickinthatbanjo]

@jim1992jacobs Indeed, I remember years ago when sniff was all the rage and the doors were just too slow for that stuff but nowadays slowing down and all the pot, booze and blues are where it's at.

[KHESANH75]

WITH MY MORPHINE YEAH LETS  CRAWL

[nolllllexija]

Robbye is just amazing..he cought a  guitar

[xFlutterGirl]

pure sex

[Thakiid101]

love em

[winkledorf17]

High or not...gotta love the doors

[ChiSportsNut18]

This song had me closing my eyes tapping my foot to the beat and nodding my head.

[yvettefoto]

Fuck drugs being illegal! I am only happy on drugs! LSD, SPEED, SHROOMS MDMA, KETAMINE, MORPHINE, TEMAZEPAM, COCAINE, RITALIN, VALIUM, whatever I can get! Weed goes without saying, same with alcohol. Their throwing away more knowledge than they could ever imagine from the hallucinogens being illegal. My life's work would get me life in prison instead of a professorship. Now that's bullshit. "Our beloved leader forced to become a bottom-feeder". Cops ought to fuck off. Fuck legalism. Stay High!

[davidendriss]

@yvettefoto

i want to give you a virtual five for your motto!

[rsrecordbreaker]

@yvettefoto shhhhh.

[bawoman]

Sexy fucking song

[0live0wire0]

man Robbie is the best just listen to these licks he's throwing, one of a kind. Def in my top 10 guitarists he's way overlooked, gotta love his style sounds so precise and spontaneous, really got that jazz feel he always surprises you

[PrimernoNeprimeran]

does any1 have trip at 4:26 piiiiiiiiiing guitar i love it!!!

[mysticarbol]

never disapointed..

[ENTREELCENTENO]

love so uch the doors man.

[ilupir77]

I used to think he sang "in the rumour den" not "room of damned" :D lol

R.I.P Jim

[jazzciggarette]

@ilupir77 its "and i rule my den"

[ilupir77]

@jazzciggarette Aha. Ok, cool.

[ProverbsMagnesium]

Looks like back door man, amazing =D

[Neptunemetallica]

Doors are great and shit, but john lee hooker did it better. FACT

[BLUESMANRONCHICAGO]

@Neptunemetallica the original is almost always the best when it comes to blues tunes, although Morrison does a creditable job on this. John Lee Hooker had such an awesome voice and inflection that it would be impossible for someone to sound as good as he did

[Neptunemetallica]

@BLUESMANRONCHICAGO Yeah i guess it doesnt do to be overly critical of covers, as new artists bring new flavors to old songs. if they did it exactly the same there would be no point right? i guess i just feel like its missing something JLH had

[tinyteishy]

yep and John has a fine take on the song too

[TheKazualty]

Just another great.hit..i believe he loved to sing this but really didnt like.it as much.as robbys songs...fuck mojo he keeps on risin to robby and ray and john...

[TheBr0phy]

Dope just enhances the sound by X10.

[utkt91]

slow version of 5 to 1 baby by the doors..........

[1morrisonhotel]

the doors once upon time i meet robbie!! !!

[lwplwp]

Heavy drug use can kill...Doesn't always....I don't do it anymore but I did a LOT in my day...And I am "still alive and well"...

[WhenYourStrange93]

fuck yeah man rippin the zong and listening to this song is pure bliss

[ss06033]

This song was originally done by John Lee Hooker

[lildarkhorse]

For a long time I used to think he was saying "I'm the crawling king snake in the room of death.." :\

love this song - especially the guitar!

[driv2881]

Fukkk what anyone says im smoking a joint and listening to the doors thats the way to do it

[cyaninternetdog]

@driv2881 Right on man, right on.

[558crosser558]

@driv2881  ahhh yeaaaaahh thats how you should live your life,.... total relaxationessessness and stuff

[driv2881]

@558crosser558 Already!!! People should of known Listening to The Doors causes relaxationessessness and stuff!!!

[anthandpete911]

@driv2881 your a fucking loser

you should kill yourself

[WhenYourStrange93]

@anthandpete911 why ? for all you know the guy has a medical marijuana card. do some research on marijuana, its not bad at all. and anyone who demonizes it is just a brainwashed robot that believes everything the media tells them. marijuana will be legal soon, it is the largest cash crop in america you know? VOTE FOR RON PAUL 2012 LEGALIZE IT 

[jordand1818]

@WhenYourStrange93 well Jim Morrison or anyone in the US at the time didnt have a medical card because the first law passed for medicinal use of marijuana wasnt until 1996 in California. but who cares burn all day everyday

[WhenYourStrange93]

@jordand1818 lol i wasn't talking about jim man. i was talking about the uneducated dipshit that said the other guy was a loser for smoking weed.. but hell yeah bro burn that shit!

[tinyteishy]

hmm this song is dead sexy, he can crawl round my den anyday :)

[leviwallner]

It's not certain he od'd on heroin. It's all speculation man, just let it go.

[dkp1948]

I can enjoy the Doors with or without weed.. They rocked. Thank you for sharing.

[ENTREELCENTENO]

shit my legs hurt cause i been dancing these yesterday any way i have fun yeah!!!1

[djclapham1]

crawling king snake Tabs E B G D A E SAME CHORDS AS cars hiss by my window by doors crawling king snake E B G D A E FROM Daniel Clapham

[tzimompakoulis]

Does John Lee Hooker like this ''cover'' ?

[WhenYourStrange93]

@tzimompakoulis what, you dont?

[tzimompakoulis]

@WhenYourStrange93 I adore the doors but I think that this cover is very mainstream to be blues....

[MrSpliff2K9]

see i try to kick my weed habit then a song like this which is brilliant sober... is just a million times more enjoyable stoned so i hit a joint to remind of the last time i was high listening to it

[despina013]

Whoa.

This song makes me want to find a king snake of my own...

The Doors. <3

[WolfySnackrib666]

Damnit, I want the song to turn all hardcore and evil after 15 seconds. That'd been so sweet.

[runest234]

2 people didnt listen to this song in 480p...

[socom2masta9]

@runest234 shit I didn't and I still loved it!

[JAAM696]

god blues viva jim morrison (mojo risin)

[systemspel]

Manzarek's laid back solo (at about 3 mins.) haunts me since I first heard it 14 years old, forty years back. One thing I never found out: The bass player on this record. Marc Benno, is unduly uncredited and I wonder if he went on to to anything else, and then if that was memorable.

[squeakymonkfish]

@systemspel Wasn't the bass player on this recording and the rest of the L.A. Woman album Jerry Scheff (who was also a member of Elvis presley's TCB band) ? I thought Marc Benno played the rhythm guitar parts?

[bartronZ]

@squeakymonkfish Jerry Scheff was definitely the bass player on the whole LA Woman album, John Lee Hooker was actually the composer for it

[lordishbehaviour]

I RULE MY DEN AY

[DimebagJim420]

All hail the lizard king

[BachoAngus]

masterpeace .. !

[yvettefoto]

I took 15 hits of acid once...it was the best time in my life!

[TributeToTotem]

Drugs or not, all songs by these four men are pure masterpieces. Respect

[Sassafras1991]

I'm straight edge, and this is one of my favorite songs (and albums) of all fucking time.

[gunslinga19]

I am the Lizard King . . . I can do anything! RIP Jim

But you don't need a joint to enjoy The Doors

[Finnstudios]

@christinasketo You are right there my friend! :D

[andrewhc101]

@christinasketo but believe me, its an surreal experience

[explosivejohnny]

@christinasketo true, but have some weed.

[Bueaify]

@christinasketo you need The Doors to enjoy weed :)

[69stringibanez]

@christinasketo Smokin pot is only dangerous if your not responsible with it, If you smoke a joint in the privacy of your home and jam out to the doors who is harmed by that? Im doin it right now

[twordslinked]

@christinasketo im high lol

[pterpa]

@twordslinked uss too bro, us too :'( :D

[thedoors934]

@twordslinked me too

[TheEarlos99]

@christinasketo Love the doors and Ive had lots of weed over the years. I can highly (aher) recommend it ;)

[itsMRpoops]

@christinasketo i never had weed does not make sence at all ahahha

[theflix815]

@christinasketo No you're right, one joint isn't enough, you need 2-4 joints man!  Doors kick ass stoned, drunk or sober, it doesn't matter there just great!

[aleday]

[GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep]

[joncaldwell68]

[megadeth2thenwo]

YOUR ALL A BUNCH OF FUCKING IDIOTS !!! FREAKIN' SLAVES ! LETIN PEOPLE TELL YOU WHAT YER GONA DOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[joshuaraydunaway]

@megadeth2thenwo FUCK YOU I WON'T DO WHATCHA TELL ME!! - Zach de la Rocha

[MrBillyjim69]

Only 23 thousand hits,,,,really???

[systemspel]

On this recording The Doors hired the services of bassist Marc Benno (taking Manzarek's feet and attention off the task -als, I'd say, commendably) thus freeing the aforementioned to work more freely with guitarist Krieger, wovig closer the band's fabric of groove and sound. I have always wondered what becam of Benno -and why they didn't adopt him as a full group member.

[eagleeye2391]

WEED IS FUCKING BORING, TRY SOME ACID BABY LSD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[blueeyedsoldier100]

@eagleeye2391

aahha stupid.

weed is boring?

ahhahah yeah we'll see where you are in 5 years retard.

[eagleeye2391]

@blueeyedsoldier100 so u smoke weed?

[blueeyedsoldier100]

@eagleeye2391

haha would I be listening to the doors if i didn't?

;]

haha

[Chubzitrollable]

@eagleeye2391 Weed isn't boring. You're just a dumbfuck hipster twat, trying to look cool.

And what the other person said. That shit fucks you up over time.

[eagleeye2391]

@Chubzitrollable wait a minute wait aminute so you are telling me that WEED doesn't cause lung cancer and doesnt kill brain cells and sperm cells?....IDIOT!

[Chubzitrollable]

@eagleeye2391 Oh, wow. I wasn't aware those words even came into. Wait--nope, didn't say those things. You're bad at this. =D You shouldn't insert words in other peoples' messages to make yourself look intelligent; it doesn't work.

Lol... Actually, there's no proof, anywhere, that marijuana causes lung cancer--look it up. Urban myth. Though the sperm cell thing... You should probably smoke more. A good way of making sure future fuckwits aren't born.

[eagleeye2391]

@Chubzitrollable hmm someone should have told your daddy that

[Chubzitrollable]

@eagleeye2391 Lol, oh, that was a good one! I'm stunned! Did you learn that in elementary school? The joke might've worked better if it wasn't playing off mine... You really ARE bad at this. =/ But, yeah, Youtube is definitely the place to argue about this.

Well, kiddo, I gotta roll. Been fun pissing you off and all.

[Chubzitrollable]

@eagleeye2391 Ohhh, also: certain factors with marijuana help reduce the chances of Alzheimer's. Another thing: studies /have/ shown that avid weed smokers have no increased risk of lung cancer, and that it's even possibly beneficial /against/ it--except for tobacco smokers, of course. You should read more. You might find out that the social opinions and myths on certain things aren't true. Hate to burst your little fantasy bubble, but Santa isn't real, either. ;D

[eagleeye2391]

@Chubzitrollable thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule to reply to my comments on youtube sir! you have completely changed my view of weed

[Chubzitrollable]

@eagleeye2391 Indeed! And thanks for replying and fueling it.

I'm afraid it's near your bed-time, though, and, well, I've got places to go, weed to smoke, tunes to jam to...

You might get the idea one day. =D

[eagleeye2391]

@Chubzitrollable ahh old unsuccessful people =)

[Chubzitrollable]

@eagleeye2391 Lol, I'm 22, cuntnugget, and have accomplished more with my left nut than your genetic line in its entirety. =D

[unclesara]

@Chubzitrollable Poetry.

[Chubzitrollable]

@unclesara Poetry?

[iggvf]

@Chubzitrollable hahaha good one dude ! :D

[kingcan18]

excellent song!!!!

[kingcan18]

excellent!!



[spayspay]

Your versions of this album don't sound right. What's up with the sound?

[blueeyedsoldier100]

hahah i hate how people talk about drugs when they listen to Doors music,

this aint pink floyd.

Jim Morrison may have OD'd on whatever, heroin.

and done acid, and prolly couldn't have even made more than half the shit he thought of without the unfluence.

But it's still real blues.

[BakerBrett69]

@blueeyedsoldier100 you no nothing about the doors then my friend morrison was never on heroin at first he was the typical 60's hippe acid and smoking bud and drinkin sometimes then as his career moved forward he stopped doing drugs for the most part and became an alcoholic and he died because he drank him self to death in paris because he had to leave the u.s because he didnt wanna go to court for the incident in florida at his show

[blueeyedsoldier100]

@BakerBrett69

No idiot. He died of a heroin O.D.

I have read, No one here gets out alive, Jim Morrison Biography, I've read an American Prayer. and Studied celebration of the lizard. and So have both my parents, when they were my age i am 18,

and. I have watched the movie over and over, after reading the real things on his life and childhood.

You are a mental case, and need to study and learn to SPELL before you talk to me

[Chubzitrollable]

@blueeyedsoldier100 You shouldn't be correcting anyone when your grammar is fuckin' atrocious.

But it was heroin. At least you're right on that note.

[blueeyedsoldier100]

@Chubzitrollable

Your dumb, cuz you can't read. Obviously

[Chubzitrollable]

@blueeyedsoldier100 Well, my typing this means I can read. Sadly, the same can't be said for you. At least learn spelling and punctuation--I don't own a "dumb". Oh, wait, you meant "you're dumb"? Lol, okay, if you say so. *sigh* God, some people...so fuckin' stupid. =D

Obviously, lul.
